Back hurts!! Muscle strain??!
Question: Back hurts!! Muscle strain.?.?
Hello, hope someone can help.. I have really bad lower back pain.. It's been a week and two days, but I can't recall anything I did to cause the pain..
What concerns me is, while sitting I try to stretch out my left leg and I feel a painful pull in my lower back that won't let me stretch out my leg completely.. also, while sitting, I turn my head downwards and feel the same painful pull.. Stretching the right leg does not cause any pain..
Could this be a pulled muscle/back muscle strain, or something more serious that I should go to the doctor.? Health Question & Answer

I had something similar and it ended up being a protruding disk in my back.. I had horrible pain that was pretty much constant.. It hurt when I would look down.. I had physical therapy for a month and learned some core strengthening exercises.. It helped tremendously.. I also did pilates and it was awesome at strenghtening my core muscles.. I would suggest seeing your doctor if the pain continues.. Health Question & Answer
